An autonomous overnight loop for Claude Code

Nightcrawler splits a mission into fresh-context Claude Code episodes on Opus, with structured handoffs between them, per-episode budget caps, git-diff checks of claimed progress, and eight automatic stop conditions.

A bundled research toolkit monitors arXiv and Semantic Scholar and synthesises findings.
